A
wonderful way to tour the Trossachs at a leisurely rate is
on our very own local country
bus service. Operating in the Summer, the Trossachs Trundler
provides a good way to
enjoy a great day out, allowing you to get on or off at any
point along the route,
the driver is also a great source of local information. Planning your route via the Trundler's timetable allows you to see and walk parts of the Trossachs you may not know about and possibly miss.
Providing a summer service to the Trossachs and linking the highland gateway resorts of Callander and Aberfoyle, the bus stops at Brig o’Turk, from where you can explore the Woodland Trust’s Glen Finglas Estate. It also calls at Loch Katrine pier, where it is timed to link with sailings of the ‘Sir Walter Scott’ and 'Ellen's Isle'. Next on the route is the climb over the spectacular Duke’s Pass calling at the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park Visitor Centre before descending into Aberfoyle.
You can use the Trossachs Trundler to view the romantic scenery or to get to the start of many lovely walks and trails in the heart of Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. The Trossachs Trundler stops on request so you can get on or off at any point along the route. The Trossachs Trundler follows part of the Trossachs Trail, a green tourism project which promotes tourism and a respect for the Trossachs environment.
